President Mellow,distinguished faculty, friends, family, and the Graduating Class of 2013.
麦罗校长,各位尊敬的老师,朋友,家人以及2013年的毕业生们:
我很荣幸能在今天分享你们的成就和荣耀。但是我必须承认,我是带着一些不安来参加这次活动的。我想,曾经有更多更认真的毕业典礼发言,收到更加用心地倾听,但是相比其他任何沟通形式,也更加迅速地被遗忘。
So I will try to bebrief and practical. My advice is grounded in my own experience. And my ownexperience, in many respects, is not that different from many of yours.
所以,我会尽量简短而实用。我的全部建议都是来自我自己的经历。而我的经历,从很多方面来看,和你们当中的很多并没有什么不同。
